“ Had a wonderful experience in Matsushima with this guide. ”

I had a truly wonderful experience in visiting Matsushima by using Tamada-san as a guide.
Her knowledge, kindness and humour allows me to enjoy my visit in Matsushima.
She brought me to lots of interesting places there (such as Matsushima island cruise, Zuiganji, Kanrantei) and I really learned a lot from them.
She is also very flexible and was able to accommodate her itinerary to include other places which I want to visit.
We are becoming a good friends and I would certainly use her service again when visiting Sendai or Fukushima area.

Tamada:

I'm honored to guide Alex-san, who has wide knowledge about Japan. We talked, laughed and impressed ourselves. All experiences and memories with Alex are treasures for me.I'm highly motivated to study more about Japan.
